hello , i wonder it is possible using windower and some of the add-ons to do custom binds, such as using keys 1 to 9 to invoke spells without control/alt? ( used to that in ffxiv where u can have 3 functions for every number ).

also is it possible to bind actuall keyboard letters to macros?

if so , how best to accomplish that? ty

Yes, you can bind keys w/o a ctrl/alt modifier:
Code
send_command('bind 1 input /ma "Spell Name" <t>')


It's probably not a good idea tho... think about it, you'd never be able to just type numbers in chat after that.

I guess you could just bind numpad #'s, but still probably not a good idea.
Code
send_command('bind numpad1 input /ma "Spell Name" <t>')

first of all, thanks ! but where do i put this, user setup section in my lua file?

about conflicts, ofc i need to be careful, this is not FFXIV and, i guess i can just do a test and see if this conflicts with the chat.

what if i want to bind a letter instead of a number? would something like this work? ( r to cast raise on someone ) :
Code
 send_command('bind r input /ma "raise" <t>')

shortcuts might work better for what you're suggesting, you just define what you want the shortcut to be so stone might be s1, so all you have to type would be //s1 or /s1, reraise/1/2/3/4 to rr1 rr2 etc
